Spurs thread 2020/21

[Dr Jacoby]

They’ll do well to finish in the top 6.

He's still significantly quicker than 90% of defenders and midfielders, though. And I'd argue that pace isn't even his strongest asset. He has superb technique. You don't consistently score the kind of goals he has throughout his career without it.



Bale is a far better player than Sanchez ever was, though. And, after the way he was treated in Madrid (by the club, by the media and by the fans), he will be hugely motivated and have a massive point to prove.



This is the big question. It's a big gamble, no doubt. But if Spurs can get 20-30 games a season from him, it's a gamble that could pay off very well.

Looks like a shadow of the player that left Spurs and at his peak he was reliant on his speed

I'll wager he doesnt start 20 PL games.

If this awful pandemic continues into next year, the only upside is its hitting the likes of Spuds, Rags and Arse financially harder than others.

No. Will be mid October before he's ready.

Tbh if you can get Kane at 100% for half a season and Bale for the other half you might be onto something.

Looks like they’ve got a bye in the league cup as Leyton Orient have a mass Covid outbreak.
